Blastoise's Red & Blue Artwork

Blastoise are a large tortoise-like Pokémon with some similar features of its pre-evolved forms. Blastoise has a large blue body, cream-colored stomach and a large brown shell rimmed with white, featuring its water cannons. It is now more noticeably bulkier than its previous evolutions. Like its pre-evolved forms. Blastoise has a shell which covers its entire body, which it can also be withdrawn into. Contrary to Squirtle and Wartortle, Blastoise's large water cannons are located on the top left and right sides. The water that comes out of the cannons are capable of punching holes through thick steel.

Special abilities

Blastoise, like Wartortle and Squirtle, can shoot out water, though not from its mouth, but its large cannons. These cannons allow water to be shot at much greater force, which leaves them the backing force of all water attacks.

A Trainer named Neesha owned a Blastoise named "Shellshocker", seen in the movie Mewtwo Strikes Back. Mewtwo had a cloned Blastoise to fight Shellshocker. Before Gary Oak went to the Hoenn region he left all his Pokémon at his Father's lab except for Blastoise.

Evolution

Blastoise is the evolved form of Wartortle, as of level 36. Blastoise is the final evolution of Squirtle. Blastoise can evolve into its mega form in Pokémon X/Y, during battle.
